So I left home at 11h30… My boyfriend brought me to the airport. I checked in which was very quick! 2 minutes! No waiting! And it was the same through security. It seems the airport is dead during the day in the week!
I bought a book, Night by Elie Wiesel. I also ate a pizza slice with some salad. Then it was time to board the plane. I flew with Zoom. They had a very old aircraft! The crew was nice though. Sitting next to me was an English smelly backpacker. We stopped in Halifax for 1h30 and had to wait inside the plane… It was long! During the flight to London I watched two movies, Last Holiday (which I kinda liked) and Fun with Dick and Jane which was ordinary. They gave us a snack sandwich/cheese/crackers/kit-kat and later the meal pasta/bread/chocolate cake.
At 4h20 (London time) I arrived in London! I had 4 hours to wait before checking-in for my flight to Amsterdam. I tried to find a spot to sleep but couldn't! I was laying on 3 seats of a row but other people moving on the row made the whole thing vibrate and it disturbed me. So I decided to listen to music. As soon as I put Sigur Ros on I was able to get 1 hour of shut eye. Then I explored the airport a bit, spotting the train tickets/train platforms/etc for when I go there on Saturday. Then I checked-in with EasyJet for my flight to Amsterdam.
I then went through security and in the lounge with all the shops and travellers. That's where everyone was! Really crazy/busy area. I bought two delicious pastries from Upper Crust, a chocolate bread and a raisin twist. The flight with EasyJet left 40 minutes late. In Amsterdam I took the train and metro to my Dutch family home where the kids were waiting for me! Tonight I had a nice dinner with the mom and kids. And now I will shower and go to bed. My eyes are so tired! But I am happy/excited to be here.
